I have to sell a couple of guitars to cover medical expenses! Unfortunately, I'm down to the guitars I love! 1.) National Estralita wood body "Deluxe" model resonator. This is the one with the MOP diamond inlays down the neck and the MOTS headstock. There is some smudges on the cover plate that would polish out with a cloth (under the strings and I didn't want to take them off to polish there), but otherwise no marks or dings. There is a strap button added right on the heal of the neck. Case is in mint condition. $1450 shipped (ad 3% for paypal).
2.) This is a Delle Arte baritone 12 string based on the Stella that Leadbelly and Willie McTell played. Ladder braced, beautiful solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides. Built by luthier John Kinnard http://www.johnkinnard.com/. These were commissioned a few years ago in a limited run and are very scarce now. When is the last time you've seen one? It is tuned from B to B and uses medium or heavy 12 strings. I use the Elixer 13-56 set. This thing is a cannon, loud and proud! great vintage sounding 12 string. More info at:http://207.179.93.144/new_instruments/items/DEL12BBGT.htm (this is the guitar that I bought from Elderly) I spent over $2600 new for this a couple of years ago, I would like to get $1700 obo.

Hi Tim,
Not in the market now, but those are good looking tools.
Hope you stick around, and good luck
